Time for another cross-post with the Coalition site. This post links into my lengthy debate with David of Theology Archaeology on the subject of faith healing, and also some flat earth arguments by one Hesedyahu. It’s Hesedyahu’s site that interests me this time around, and specifically his arguments against ‘germ theory’. Let’s begin with this […]
There is a notion that 2019’s Captain Marvel was not the success story we thought it was. Cosmic Book News, a small, independent media ‘outlet’ that focuses on (unsurprisingly) comic book media, including the Marvel Cinematic Universe (among other things), is claiming the first Captain Marvel film failed, despite the film’s takings of $1.128 billion […]
The UK has one of the highest number of deaths from Covid-19 of any country on earth (7th), as a direct result of Tory incompetence. Billions have been spaffed up the wall on Track and Trace systems that have taken forever to actually work (and Tory cronyism has seen the mates of Tory ministers get […]
I’m not ashamed to say I sit on the left of the political spectrum. I am in favour of things like a public healthcare system. I believe that there ae enough resources on this earth to bring everyone out of poverty and still allow us to live comfortable lives. I am in favour of decriminalising […]
Welcome to May! The fifth month of the year – and slowly but surely we are creeping out of lockdown and back to a vague semblance of normality – whatever that is. It’s also time for the latest Meerkat Muse! Dates! It’s a rare occasion when my wife and I get to spend the day […]
Far be it for me to consider The Daily Mail a reliable source, but then again, considering Boris Johnson’s willingness to put the economy (money) ahead of protecting lives, it’s entirely plausible. ‘Let the bodies pile high in their thousands’, instead of entering a second lockdown. Those are the words attributed to Johnson during a […]
Welcome one and all to the latest Meerkat Muse! What’s been happening to this meerkat these past couple of weeks? Well, I’ve continued to rejoice at the return of Formula 1, football has continued to provide frustrations (more on that below), we’re up and running at work, we’ve had family time, and the weather couldn’t […]
The first half of the season had produced a mixed bag. We were second in the standings, three points off Arsenal, and we’d had some amazing results – along side a disappointingly large number of defeats. We’d lost five of our 19 games, and won the other 14 – this Liverpool side didn’t know how […]
Last season had ended on the slightly sour note of losing in the Champions League Final. Ok ok, it was more than ‘slightly sour’. It hurt, as it naturally would. Leeds had been on the verge of glory, but the lottery of penalties hadn’t been kind. That was in the past. The 31/32 season was […]
Welcome to a dark and twisted macabre world. Welcome to a desperate race to escape an evil place. Welcome to Bendy and the Ink Machine. I’m still not entirely sure of the plot, other than that a retired (or sacked?) animator of what looks like a 1930s studio returns to his place of work at […]
In the not so distant future, I will have been blogging at Meerkat Musings for TEN years. That's sort of scary. I never set out to reach a milestone like that, but ten years on, Meerkat Musings feels like my home-on-the-web, so to speak. #BloggingCommunity
Now, this I find difficult. Of those I have tried, which admittedly is not many, I am rather fond of McDonald's fries, though Burger King's have grown on me.
Let me reiterate, this post is not suitable for work! However, it is perhaps not for the reasons you think (or hope!). I am no prude. I am a man of the world, and familiar with activities of an, um, personal nature. Let it also be said that if people wish to educate themselves about […]
